| | MICROBIAL AIR SAMPLER ( MAS ) - STAPLEX
MAS-1 Microbial Air Sampler Single Stage
Fast, efficient design, easy to use to collect and assay aerobic species of bacteria and fungi
Meets ACGIH recommendations for bioaerosol sampling. Corrosion resistant, easily sterilizable
Utilizes standard 100 x 15 mm disposable plastic petri dishes
Verifiable flow rate
Made in U.S.A.
Model MAS-1 and MAS-1A Single Stage Microbial Air Samplers are designed to meet the specifications of the latest A.C.G.I.H. Bioaerosol Committee concerning sampling protocol and analytical procedures. The single stage design and verifiable low sampling flow rate minimize microorganism damage and allow efficient sampling and sterilizing. Spring retainers allow more samples to be taken in less time, with less culture damage.
Designed for in-house microbial sampling, the MAS-1 viable sampler collects and enumerates all airborne microorganisms. The MAS-1 is comprised of an aluminum inert core, sampling stage and a base plate held together by three spring clamps and sealed with O-ring gaskets. The sampling stage had 400 precision-machined orifices.
The collection and assessment of aerosol samples is very simple. A petri dish containing an agar medium appropriate for the microorganisms that may be encountered is placed in the instrument and a sample of air is drawn. The petri dish is then removed, inverted in its cover, incubated and counted by an accepted method. ( Petri dishes/ agar not included.) | | |
